Looks Like a House Now

Since we got the full tour yesterday, I thought I would add an update as much for myself as anybody. It will still be quite a haul up to the front door should one decline to use the elevator, from the garage or not know about it. The garage, as we suspected, it big enough to hold the RV that they are currently living in. The part over the garage will be the living room dining and kitchen all combined in one room much like ours. There will also be three bedrooms, a sitting room and an office. The pool is somehow going to be elevated to the same level as the house, perched above the rock cliff. I wasn't quite clear on how that will work. It will be clad with cement siding.

 We were happy to have re-established contact, which Bart finally did by standing in the driveway and shouting up at us sitting on the porch. He said he had tried to call us about a month ago and got somebody with my name who said she lived on Wildwood but didn't know anybody named Bart. Turns out he had the wrong number. Who else lives on Wildwood who answers to my name?

Spike heard us talking outside their trailer and was on the other side of the fence howling (such a sad dog sound) so we took our leave.

I love all the interesting feedback I always get from my musings here. I'm really interested in how many people have come to feel the same way as I do about shopping for clothes. The company I chose, touted as a 'fun and enjoyable shopping experience' is called Stitch Fix, and there is a Stitch Fix UK.  I don't know if it will be the answer, but I'm looking forward to giving it a try. 

I heard an interview with the founder, Katerina Lake. She had stories of funding and later taking an internet company public in a field largely populated by men, who almost all said her idea was 'crazy'. She established Stitch Fix in 2011, later at age 34  became the youngest woman to take a company public and was the only woman in 2017 to lead an IPO in technology. Also in 2017 Forbes named her one of America's richest self made women. Not bad for someone whose idea, as perceived by men, didn't have a chance.
